Chapter 70: The Giver

Liu Jian's words made Lu Qiang's heart quite excited.

In terms of the identity of the other party's protΓ©gΓ© Lu Zhi and Zheng Xuan's son-in-law, cooperating with Lu Qiang is indeed a big face, of course, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong would not think so, but Lu Qiang thought so.

In Lu Qiang's eyes, Liu Jian is not an ordinary scholar and student, he has killed Xianbei and made great contributions, has done a cold people's chant, fought Cao Poshi who wanted to trouble him, and even retreated safely in the battle between the Yuan family and the Son of Heaven.

Moreover, everything Liu Jian did seemed to make Lu Qiang feel selfless, all for the country and the Han family.

If he was a person like Yuan Kui who hid his selfishness in his heart, Lu Qiang would definitely not cooperate with him, and if he was just an ordinary scholar, enthusiastic but without outstanding identity and ability, Lu Qiang would not cooperate with him.

He seems to be a partner specially tailored by God for Lu Qiang's standard configuration, and he is suitable for all aspects.

"De Ran is willing to cooperate with the old man and jointly persuade His Majesty?"

Liu Jian didn't know how much of Lu Qiang's words were true, but he didn't really mean to persuade Liu Hong.

Liu Hong is already finished from the roots, he has no talent for governing the country, but he has a belly full of intrigues and self-righteous cleverness.

But when it comes to conspiracy, he still owes the fire compared to the family lord, and when something is not as good as he wants, he is still willing to mess up.

For such a son of heaven, even if Xiao He, Zhuge Liang, Fang Xuanling, and Di Renjie were mailed to him in bundles, it was basically in vain.

Now Liu Jian can only ask for what he wants from the Son of Heaven under the guise of "persuading the emperor".

Therefore, Liu Jian is deceiving Lu Qiang at the moment.

"Yes, we must persuade Your Majesty together to govern the ancestral foundation and make the Han Dynasty prosperous!"

This is really against my will, but I can't help but say it.

"Okay, Your Majesty has a courtier like you, and the true clan is also fortunate."

Liu Jian looked around, once again made sure that there were no others in the hall, and said: "Zhongchang Servant, there is a taboo word, I have to tell you, in the eyes of Your Majesty, you are not favored, I am not valued, with our current value, the more we say, the more wrong, the top priority is not to advise Your Majesty, but to let Your Majesty believe in me and favor you." ”

"Only when Your Majesty believes that I am a sharp blade in my hand, and I believe that you are a worthy servant, you and I will have the capital to persuade Your Majesty, otherwise it will only get worse and worse the more you persuade, and the more you persuade, the more alienated you will be."

Lu Qiang sighed lightly, Liu Jian was young, but he had extraordinary knowledge, and his words were to the point.

Compared with Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others, Lu Qiang is really annoying to Liu Hong.

"Deran, you say, what should the old man do in order to gain His Majesty's favor?"

Liu Jian said seriously: "The affairs of the court make Your Majesty very annoying, from now on, you should not talk to Your Majesty about the affairs of the court at will, the more you advise, the more disgusted Your Majesty will be, and the more Zhang Rang and others hate you, of course, if the Zhongchang Servant really has urgent matters to advise, we can also discuss them in advance." ”

"Okay, I know, but I don't talk about the court, just so that Your Majesty won't bother me anymore, I'm afraid it may not please Your Majesty, right?"

"Then the regular attendant will advise you on some things that Your Majesty likes." Liu Jian is kind and seductive.

"Alas, Your Majesty likes beauty, and recruits colorful women, Zhang Rang and others recruit colorful girls into the palace, but this is the way to work hard and hurt money, and the old man vows not to do it."

Liu Jian smiled when he heard this: "Let Your Majesty recruit colorful women, revitalize the people, and work the people and lose money is just the lowest means to please Your Majesty.

"This shows that Zhang Rang and other generations can only find a color girl for His Majesty, into the curiosity, but they don't know how to use color girls and games to please Your Majesty, you have to rely on Your Majesty to find a way, this is really inferior, the regular servant only needs to help His Majesty share his worries, thinking about teaching His Majesty how to play, as long as once or twice, your status in Your Majesty's heart will be completely different, and the money spent so much, compared to building a garden, the recruitment of color girls is almost negligible."

"Play?" Lu Qiang was a little confused: "How to play?" ”

Liu Jian smiled when he saw this.

Playing this is unfathomable, you eunuchs are experts in slapping horses, but when it comes to how to play, how fresh and exciting, the eunuchs of the entire Beigong are tied together, and they are not as thoroughly studied by him, a later person.

Especially for a rural ruffian like Liu Hong, there are ways to regulate him.

"I'll teach you a few methods, and you can go back to Your Majesty to try it."

Subsequently, Liu Jian began to teach Lu Qiang how to please Liu Hong and how to find exciting game methods for Liu Hong.

After listening to Liu Jian's professor, Lu Qiang nodded as if he didn't understand.

He had slight doubts in his heart, but he finally felt that he had to go back and try.

Before parting, Lu Qiang told Liu Jian: "Your Majesty is recently asking Zongzheng Liu Junlang to check your resume in Zongzheng Mansion, you need to keep this in mind." ”

Liu Jian listened to Lu Qiang's words, smiled slightly, and his heart was clear.

"Thank you for telling me about this, there will be something in the palace in the future, and I hope to give me more advice."

"Well said, well said."

"In addition, I can't intervene on Dazongzheng's side, if there is anything about me, please ask the Zhongchang attendant to help secretly."

Lu Qiang smiled faintly, he was also an old eunuch, so he naturally understood what Liu Jian meant.

"Don't worry, don't worry, just keep an eye on this matter."

After Lu Qiang left, Liu Jian began to think to himself in his heart.

Since the Son of Heaven is looking for Zongzheng to check the foundation of his family, it shows that Liu Hong is still more interested in himself, a member of the Han family.

But it's no wonder that in addition to the eunuchs, from Liu Hong's point of view, the only people who can really give him a sense of trust are the people in the clan surnamed Liu.

People like Liu Yan and Liu Yu have an extremely important position in the heart of the Son of Heaven.

If someone else dares to advise Liu Hong to abolish Shi Limu, and recommends himself out, his legs are directly discounted for him.

I should still be in the assessment period.

……

After one night, the other Lang officials took over, and Liu Jian went home.

After a tired night, he was really a little sleepy.

When he returned to his home in the southern suburbs, he saw an ox cart parked outside his house.

The cars are filled with well-packed wooden boxes, and although you can't see what's inside, if you think about it carefully, you can probably guess that it must be a gift.

It's just good, why did someone prepare a cart of gifts and come to their door?

Liu Jian walked to the door of his house suspiciously, and saw some people negotiating with Zheng Ci in front of the door, thinking that they were the people who gave gifts.

Zheng Ci seemed relieved to see Liu Jian coming back.

She hurriedly stepped forward and greeted Liu Jian.

"Sister, who are these?"

Zheng Ci said in a low voice: "Lang Jun, thanks to you coming back, these people call themselves the Yuan family, and on the order of the head of the family, they brought some small gifts to greet Lang Jun, and they were about to leave when they put down the courtesy, and the concubine asked Li Damu to stop them, saying that they would have to wait for Lang Jun to come back and deal with it." ”

The gift in the capital is indeed not acceptable to anyone, you must know that there is no free lunch in this world.

Zheng Ci guarded the bottom line for him in Liu Jian's house, which made Liu Jian very relieved.

"There's Sister Law."

Liu Jian nodded at her, and then went to meet those who came to give gifts.

"Dare to ask who is under your feet, why is Lilly Liu's house?"

Although the leader is dressed as a servant, he speaks and acts with great propriety, and at first glance he looks like a person from a high-ranking family.

"Back to the waiter, the villain is a person in Yuan's house, on the order of the head of the family, prepare some household things, send them to the waiter, and there are no valuables, they are all ordinary tools, the waiter first arrived in the capital, is to rent a house, presumably not more comfortable than living at home, my master ordered us to prepare a common thing, for the waiter to live in Luoyang."

"Yuan Mansion?"

Liu Jian frowned, if the surname Yuan is discussed, in the entire Luoyang City, the number one is naturally Yuan Kui.

But Yuan Kui, as the sect master of the Yuan clan and the third duke, how could he personally order someone to send something to a small Lang official?

It must not be him.

In this way, I think there are only those second-generation middle-aged people of the Yuan family.

Anyway, he now has some fame and some identity, and it is reasonable for those people of the second generation of the Yuan family to want to recruit him.

In Liu Jian's mind at this moment, a name first popped up - Yuan Shao!

Yuan Benchu, a model in the world, with his personality and ability, is most likely to be the first to want to recruit himself.

Liu Jian basically decided that the other party was Yuan Shao's person.

But he still arched his hand and asked: "Since you claim to be from the Yuan Mansion, I don't know which official of the Yuan family you are talking about is the head of the family?" ”

The man smiled and said, "I have the name of the head of the family here, and I invite the squire to the mansion to gather." ”

After that, he handed over the famous thorn and Liu Jian.

Liu Jian opened it and looked at it, and was quite shocked.

Among the second generation surnamed Yuan, it stands to reason that this person should not take care of himself the most.

is the elder brother of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and also the sister-in-law of Yuan Fengyi, the next head of the family recognized by everyone, Yuan Ji.

Liu Jian thought for a long time, and finally spoke:

"Leave the things behind, convey my gratitude to the prince on my behalf, and visit the house in person the next day."
